General Tajammul Hussain Malik:
Led a brigade which successfully held Hilli from the onset of the 71 war till even after the official surrender, a whole Indian division. This Indian division further enjoyed support from the Mukhti Bahini, as well as support from the air. Eventually the Indians simply overran Hilli with their vastly superior numbers, but Malik fought right till the end, was eventually captured and then subjected to torture by the Bengalis. His refusal to surrender and decision to go down with his men was nevertheless extremely admirable.
